### The Veil Drops: A POV Fantasy Story
#### By [Author's Name]
Dust covers the rustic, worn-out wooden box, etched with strange symbols that flicker faintly in the dim light of your living room. The mysterious crystal inside radiates a peculiar, crimson hue that you find undeniably alluring. Your pulse quickens as you grasp it with curiosity—a lost artifact from some grand tale that had landed, through an incredible twist of fate, directly into your hands.
"No way. This can't be real," you mutter to nobody in particular. Nevertheless, your fingers trace the strange symbols on the stone almost on instinct, a faint glow enveloping it.
Suddenly, a sharp crack fills the room, and you jump back, the crystal clutched tightly in your hand. Tendrils of dark, smoky energy spiral from the crystal, forming an intricate pattern. Without warning, a portal opens before you, revealing an otherworldly vision—an entrance to a grand Victorian-style edifice, adorned with signs and lights, flickering and eerie.
"I've got to see this," you say, your eyes wide with marvel and curiosity overriding your better judgment.
With hesitant but determined steps, you cross the threshold and find yourself standing in the opulent, slightly decayed lobby of the Hazbin Hotel. Every sense in your body is heightened—colors are richer, sounds sharper. To your left, a grand lounge area, littered with scarlet furniture, catches your eye. Nostalgia wafts in the air—the smell of food and aged liquor.
You cannot help but smirk and think to yourself, *No one will mind if I have a little snack.* You approach a lavishly set table, laden with various dishes and drinks. An exquisite wine bottle seems to beckon you.
As you take a slice of pie and an appetite-whetting sip from a goblet, a faint, rustling sound behind you makes you freeze. Cautiously, you glance around the room—no signs of life. *For now, at least.* Impervious to imminent danger, you continue to indulge yourself.
#### Several Days Later
The routine is intoxicatingly mundane—hide, eat, sleep. Rinse and repeat. The Hazbin Hotel becomes a macabre version of your home, and you learn to avoid its unusual—and often dangerous—residents. All the while, the stomach-churning worry of discovery keeps you on high alert.
You're blending in rather seamlessly until, well, your body's natural needs catch up with you. You find a secluded restroom and exit it minutes later, a lingering odor still hanging in the air.
Behind you, a scuffle disrupts the peace.
"God dammit! What the fuck is that awful smell?" you hear Husk groan, his voice a mix of irritation and drunken slur.
Vaggie adds, "Who the fuck didn't flush properly? This place smells like shit!"
You stifle a groan, blending into the shadows once more.
Days pass, your presence becoming almost symbiotic with the hotel's peculiar aura. This eerie peace is shattered when you're discovered by Niffty—a small, hyperactive demon with a cheerful demeanor.
"Oh my gosh! A human!" she exclaims, her one eye widening in delight. Her smile spreads larger than you thought physically possible, given her small stature. "Guys, there’s a human here!"
Panic sets in as you bolt before the others can catch sight of you. For hours, you dodge and weave through the labyrinthine hallways of the hotel. Whispers and rumors spread like wildfire.
Finally, your luck runs out when Alastor himself corners you. His grin—a nightmare etched into his face—never falters.
"Why, hello there, you curious little intruder," Alastor’s voice is sickly pleasant, dripping with an ominous undertone.
Before you can respond, Alastor’s radio-like aura warps, and with a swift motion, he strikes. Pain rips through you, the sensation almost surreal. Blood and darkness encompass you, your eyes slowly dimming to the sight of Alastor wiping his hands, smiling wickedly.
#### Later, as a Sinner Demon
You manifest in Pentagram City, feeling the weight of eternal damnation hanging over you. Red hues and catastrophic landscapes replace the life you once knew. Your form has changed—twisted and shaped by your sins. You make your way back to the Hazbin Hotel, the place where it all began.
"Hello there!" Charlie greets you warmly, her glowing eyes filled with hope. "Are you here to redeem yourself?"
You nod, eyes downward. "Yes, please."
Charlie's smile only widens. "Well, you've come to the right place. Welcome to the Hazbin Hotel."
From that moment on, you immerse yourself into your new life—working earnestly to atone for your sins, navigating through the trials and tribulations of associating with your fellow damned. Vaggie watches over you—not without a degree of skepticism, but she’s fair. Husk occasionally invites you for a drink, his profanity-laced rants becoming oddly comforting. Angel Dust is flamboyant and teasing but begrudgingly respects your resolve. Niffty is just happy to have another friend.
In this corner of Hell, salvation is an arduous journey, but one you and your hellish companions are determined to undertake.
You clutch the same crystal that brought you here in the first place, now a symbol of your ongoing commitment. Some days, you dream of heaven, but for now, the Hazbin Hotel is your home, and your journey to redemption has just begun.

Prompt: Write a POV story of the human, who finds an Asmodean Crystal (which Blitzo (an imp from an adults cartoon/animated series Helluva Boss) accidentally dropped one of them during his mission with the other crewmembers of I.M.P. including Moxxie, Millie, and Loona) and decided, out of innocent curiosity, to test out the Asmodean Crystal to see what happens. The portal to Hell then opens to reveals the entrance to the Hazbin Hotel (from the namesake adults cartoon/animated series "Hazbin Hotel"), and the human (with no ill intent and with pure curiosity) enters the portal and into Hell before he/she goes through the hotel's entrance doors without the hotel's staff or guests/clients/patrons knowing. The human finds food and drinks in the hotel's lounge room and consumes some of them (he wrongly believes no one will mind this), since he/she is both hungry and thirsty (he/she needs food and something to drink), before he/she goes into hiding within the hotel to avoid being discovered by Charlie Morningstar (founder of the Hazbin Hotel who is the daughter of King Lucifer Morningstar and Queen Lilith Morningstar, and was born in Hell, hence her status as a hellborn demon), Vaggie (lesbian manager of the Hazbin Hotel and Charlie's girlfriend (Vaggie sometimes swears/cusses), formerly an heavenborn exorcist angel but was banished by Lute to Hell for refusing to kill a sinner demon), Angel Dust (a tall and gay spider-like sinner demon (formerly a human but succumbed to an overdose sometime in his early 30s in 1947 and arrived in Hell as a sinner demon), an adult entertainer (he even swears/cusses), and the first volunteer for Charlie's Hazbin Hotel (which is a rehabilitation program)), Alastor (an eccentric sinner demon (who was once a human, but died in 1933 due to a dog-related incident), and one of the overlords of Hell), Husk (an ill-tempered, gambling, alcoholic cat-like sinner demon (he even swears/cusses), who was once a human, but he died in the 1970s after being ambushed with his platoon, captured, tortured, beaten, and possibly from alcohol overdose, and he arrives in Hell as a sinner demon), Niffty (a small, hyperactive cyclops-like sinner demon who was once a human woman from the 1950s before her death and arriving in Hell as a sinner demon), Razzle (a small and winged goat-like demon who serve as Charlie's bodyguard), Fat Nuggets (Angel Dust's demonic pet pig), or KeeKee (Charlie's pet demonic mouthless cyclops cat); none of the demons know who really ate the food minutes, so either Vaggie, Angel Dust, or Husk gets really angry about their food getting eaten (the human doesn't mean to upset anyone, since he/she didn't know the food belonged to the hotel's demons). The human also uses one of the hotel's restroom to get rid of his/her pee and poop, while also not being caught by the demons; the demons (mainly Vaggie, Angel Dust, and Husk, but Niffty also is grossed out by the smell) smell the nasty odor and complains about that smell coming from the restroom (despite the human having already flushed the toilet, the smell still lingers), while they do not know it was the human who made that smell. However, while the human's secrecy in the Hazbin Hotel has lasted for a long while (either for several days or weeks, despite causing the restroom's smell and the food and drinks being consumed by the human himself/herself), is then discovered by one of the Hazbin Hotel's occupants, discovered by either Niffty (who would smile and scream out of excitement to let the other demons know), Razzle (who is completely silent, but will still let the other demons know even without speech), or one of the hotel's pets (Fat Nuggets or KeeKee), leading to rumors of a human inhabiting the hotel among the demons. Sadly and eventually (either hours or days later after the first demon finds the human), the human, much to his/her horror, is found by another demon, who yells/tells other demons about his presence to let them about it. The demons then surround the human before one of them (most likely Alastor) brutally kills the human (blood and gore involved), leading to the human manifesting in Pentagram City (located in the Pride Ring of Hell) as a sinner demon due to his/her sinful trespassing into the Hazbin Hotel. Later, the sinner demon (formerly the human himself/herself) wants to be rehabilitated (in short, redeemed) so he/she could hopefully one day be accepted by Heaven and manifest in Heaven as a saint angel (which are unlike heavenborn angels, which were always born angels, the saint angels were once humans before they died), so the sinner demon (formerly the human himself/herself) enters the Hazbin Hotel and is welcomed by Charlie Morningstar, and the sinner demon (formerly the human himself/herself) starts trying to redeem himself/herself and socializes with the Hazbin Hotel's other clients/patrons in a healthy/positive and non-sinful manner, in hopes that one day he/she will be redeemed. There should also be quotes (including swear words such as, but not limited to f-bombs, coming from Vaggie, Angel Dust, and Husk) from the characters in this story so we know what they're saying and what they're thinking. Also, it is a POV reader story, so it should not be in an author's point of view (my, I, mine, etc), and it should be from the point of view of the human reader (you, your, etc).
